Gers suffer Beasley blow
Rangers winger DaMarcus Beasley may not play again this season after sustaining a serious knee injury in Tuesday's Champions League defeat at Stuttgart.
The American will return to his homeland for an operation on the injury that he picked up after tangling with the German side's keeper Rafael Schafer.

While I have had alot of admiration and respect for DaMarcus Beasley (and, most likely will always continue to do so) I can only be frustrated with this injury since it could have been absolutely avoided. He tried to win a ball in a 1 on 1 with the GK (with a defender dangerously bearing down on.......well, the BOTH of them) in a situation where he was more likely to be the loser than anybody else and he should have just skipped over the 'keeper and live to fight another day. I feel bad for him but he should have played that situation a little smarter.
-
dat sad, de man eal cool, best wishes fella.

I missed the actual injury, but saw news of it a couple days ago and was real disappointed for him he'd started to settle in nicely with Rangers. My biggest concern is that Beasley isn't the most skilled of players, speed is his greatest asset, and the first to be sacrificed with an ACL injury as here.

I agree..... :devil: ;D

funny, because i was thinking the same thing and refused to write it. I doubt I'm the only one in that situation, too.
On a less long term perspective, he was a real thorn in the side against Lyon in the first CL game - might just make the Rangers counterattacks less dangerous in the must win return leg in Hampden.
Hope he gets well as soon as possible though. ACL is a hell of a thing

i eh celebrating the man injury.. i wish him the best and hope he has a speedy recovery..
but does that mean we have to ignore the implication of his injury on the strength of one of our direct opponents, and by extension our campaign?

You'd have to guess since you wouldn't know class if it ran up on you and bit you on the ass.

I really hadn't thought about that, considering that I think we would always have a hard time against the US, no matter who they put on the field. Until or federation and, by extension, National team show me something different in terms of their entire approach to preparing for the upcoming campaign, I don't feel we should even focus too much on trying to beat the USA an/or Mexico, should we have to face them. We just have to try and keep the scores respectable (meaning a draw or one-goal loss) and be more concerned about beating Guatemala and Cuba.....both home and away!!

I wasn't trying to suggest that we would have an easier time against the US cause as a matter of fact.. i think our cutass booked in any case.
But the point i was trying to make is that if a man feel to discuss how the injury would hurt their chances/enhance ours then he should feel free to express that...
Yuh feel we woulda be crying any long tears if we heard beckham was injury before our game against enland?
-
I am sorry about his injury but I hope it keeps him out of matches against TT if that is possible.

Well, I'm terribly sorry that you missed the whole gist of my post, but since you have the master plan in place to finally render onto the USA, the cut-arse that which is theirs and lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng overdue and turn history on it's head (in a meaningful game that counts, mind you) Then I say you walk in Skulliver sCamps office with resume in hand and tell 'im to get rid of the entire coaching staff and hire you for the job.. In fact, fuhget de damned resume! Jes' go and take over the next training session and send Wim and Co. on dey way! I guarantee you, the coaching staff is counting NO MORE than TWO POINTS to be gained against the USA........and the USA is counting NO LESS than SIX against us. We have not shown the ability to compete against them with any degree of consistency. While the Americans will not approach us with complacency, they know very well that once they come out in any meaningful game against us and execute their game plan, we are no match for them...............no matter how tight we tighten our pegs, we know it, too. It takes a whole lot more than determination and bravado to take on and defeat a superior opponent, Boss. You have to first have the tools and the necessary substance.

this stinks of racism.

GLASGOW, Scotland - United States midfielder DaMarcus Beasley's BMW has been set on fire outside his home in Glasgow.
The incident happened Monday in the Scottish city. Beasley said Wednesday on Twitter that "someone blew up my car." He added that he was "glad no one got hurt."
Strathclyde Police says it is treating the incident as "willful fireraising" and that inquiries are ongoing.
-
Whoa! Daz some serious shit dey.
However....why immediately assume is racism?
Is not like Beasley is de first black player to play in Scotland or dey have a history of dese kinds of attacks against black players dey.
It could be anyting.
-
see what happens when you trying to impersonate a footballer.
serious thing though.
-
Racism is the likely culprit. Of course it could be anything but if you had to put money on why, racism will get the money.
He's has a history of being racially abused. He was abused in the Netherlands and in Europe in the Champions League with Rangers and while in Scotland.
He's been having that problem for a while.
Not only him but the other Black American player Maurice Edu was racially abused by his own Rangers fans after a game he didn't even play in.

Beasley's car set on fire outside his Glasgow home
ESPN.com news services
GLASGOW, Scotland -- United States midfielder DaMarcus Beasley's BMW has been set on fire outside his home in Glasgow.
The incident happened Monday in the Scottish city. Beasley, who plays for Glasgow Rangers in the Scottish Premier League, said Wednesday on Twitter that "someone blew up my car." He added that he was "glad no one got hurt."
Strathclyde Police says it is treating the incident as "willful fireraising" and that inquiries are ongoing.
Rangers has described it as a "disturbing and deplorable incident." The club is currently in first place, 10 points ahead of archrival Glasgow Celtic.
It's not the first time Beasley has faced vandalism or abuse during his career in Europe.
In December 2008, Beasley's car was broken into and ransacked outside his home. It was the fourth in a series of break-ins targeting Rangers players.
Beasley and teammate Maurice Edu have also suffered racial taunts from fans at matches during their careers in Europe.
Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.

Not that it makes that much of a difference, but I hope it wasn't racially motivated- calling a man names is one thing, but intentionally destroying property- that's just too much... I eh care what your beliefs are.
-
I cant see it being racially motivated. Possibly football related, but dat doesnt make it race.
Glasgow is a tough city, but not to de point where black people are getting lynched
-
Plenty people know bout Glasgow and the people up there are partial to any type of crime,after they are totally pissed up they would do anything.It doesn't matter that black players have been playing up there they still have the racist element.Have they ever set fire to a white players car,there's a first time for anything.
-
IN 2010 it is d car. I guess 20 yrs ago it woulda b he and car.
-
this is crazy..i really hope this shit was not racially motivated

That's some heavy denial dey fella!! even after the article confirmed racial abuse on ah regular.
-
guy's did Lata, Sancho and Samuel who is still playing over their ever encounter racism with their club or even Scotland went he was their...cause it seem only american black player's encounter this racism thing...

could be the start of a tiger woods part 2. :devil:
-
Beasley's Rangers team-mates Allan McGregor, Kyle Lafferty, Kevin Thomson and Kenny Miller have also had their cars vandalised in the past although not to the extent of Monday's attack. Lafferty's Bentley was scratched hours after an Old Firm game last October. Another Rangers player, Nacho Novo, called in a private security firm after internet threats were made towards him.
They're all white
see what happens when you trying to impersonate a footballer.
:rotfl:

Mob mentality in a stadium is different from real life. and in glasgow they will burn anything.
I actually booked a ticket to Glasgow 5 minutes after my last post, so I better be right ;D

Play you going in the Celtic area in your car with a rangers sticker, see how long it lasts.
Two years ago they parked a car in Glasgow with an England flag on it and filmed it secretly...less than 15 minutes later it was burnt out.
-
